That's a fair take. Like I said in my original post the ratings and overall interest in the NFL aren't going anywhere.

The NFL is too big I don't see there ever being a true demise but I feel like the NFL will start to go the way of the current NBA. Ratings and revenue will still be great but the purist fans of football will lose interest and the NFL will generally be talked about how much better the product was 10-15 years ago. There's a lot of people on the board that deny this but I already see it in a lot of places how people talk about the NFL this way. It's sad but money talks and that's all that really matters for the Owners of the league.

I have no idea how the logistics would look but if Green Bay can handle hosting a draft then Buffalo/Orchard Park could handle it too Those were projected numbers but then the weather ended up being bad in Buffalo for the eclipse and alot of people went to other places like Cleveland etc.. and they said they were nowhere near 1 million people in the Buffalo area. I wish the weather was better because I was actually curious to see how the area could handle hosting that many tourists.

I don't love the new stadium by any means but disagree with a couple points here. I think Buffalo can still end up hosting the draft once the new stadium opens and we were never getting a Superbowl here no matter what.

Expensive

But across the street

Apparently he wasn't as much of a minimalist as you guys thought 😄

Kelvin Benjamin also was lazy and unmotivated. I don't get this vibe from him at all. He's allowed to enjoy good food

This guy loves to eat..he is going to love Buffalo

I'll get this party started The Ninja Turtles game(I forget what the exact name was) Mortal Kombat 2 NBA Jam Street Fighter 2

This is pretty cool. I know Eric Moulds has been working with Shakir this offseason. I'd love to see him get some work in with Keon as well. I can see there being some similarities in their game.

Exactly! Couldn't have said it any better. The people that are disappointed he didn't swing for the fences and trade up and make a big splash are the same people who think this team was contending for a Super Bowl this year. It was always going to be a 2 year re-tooling process and I think he did an excellent job plugging in the holes with this draft. I can see him making more of a splash move next year.

Personality wise he is going to fill the Tre White void

I've been saying it on here all offseason this is absolutely the beginning of a transition period/reset. Do not have expectations for this team to be a Super Bowl contender this year. It just is what it is. All in all I thought they did a good job of plugging holes this draft but they will still need at least one more offseason of work to really get this thing back on track.

Love this pick! Torrence last year and now SVPG. Continue to build up the OL with more nastiness

Is it just me or does anybody else see some similarities with Eric Moulds? If he can pan out to be that type of player at the NFL level I would be very happy

Drafting players and how they will pan in in the NFL is never an exact science. Fans are allowed to have opinions. Most of the time they are wrong lol. But there has been plenty of times where Beane & Co. have been wrong themselves. We just have to let it play out but of course fans are going to have their opinions

Detroit did in 97 and 98 with Mike Vernon and Chris Osgood

That was probably just the introductory phone call then. I got one of those with my rep introducing themselves a few weeks ago but they said I wouldn't be up for the stadium experience until the end of 2024 or the beginning of 2025.

Going out to a bar with some friends. At my age this is about as exciting as a night out gets these days

What's your one go to show that no matter how many times you've seen every episode if you're feeling bored or down you can still watch it and it brings you some comfort? It's definitely Seinfeld for me. Growing up my parents used to always watch it, I found it funny as a kid but after going through adulthood it became so much more relatable and even more funny to me. Doesn't matter how many times I've seen an episode if I'm scrolling through the tv channels and it's on 75% of the time I am stopping to watch. At one point my answer probably would have been The Simpsons(classic years only) but I just don't watch it that often these days

That's the problem. It's already become too watered down

I would love to trade up and get one of the premium receiver's but I hate the thought of giving up that much capital as we still have a few other holes that need to be addressed. Either way it's going to be a really interesting draft this year. I'm excited

But does he have the ammo to trade up that high? I know he would love to do it but I don't know if he has the means. I think realistically he trades up but more around 18 to early 20's range
